Keep the Flame Alive alla y'all – know you wanna take it higher fighters and survivors, come on and raise your lighters keep the flame alive redeem the moment – dream dynamics steam locomotive poetics in italics panoramic cinematics in vistavision the rhythm of time, emphatic in its divisions syncopated steps – spiral staircase pirate broadcasts reclaim the airspace get the word dispersed and far flung strum upon the heart strings, come and start some every second is a beckon to the first move I reckon it's laying in wait to burst through when it's high time and you've primed the pump DIY punks redefine the funk giving back and it's woven in the tapestry chilling cats be smoking in the back with me set in outer space with the time and thoughts heavy with the bass like the DiamondBoxx alla y'all – know you wanna take it higher fighters and survivors, come on and raise your lighters keep the flame alive every day adapting to the circumstance changing fast, coming at us like an avalanche highing fly where the curve of the earth is vast still ascending and you know there ain't no turning back burning passion and we're charged to protect it artists know this world yet it's hard to reflect it but what choice have we got when poison is taught? keep attuning to the Now with the noises we brought ninety-nine and a half ain't enough time is tight, like a hand in a glove in the anti-node where I stand in the sub with the antidote in demand with the love there's nothing like it you can say you ever heard before surging forth toward what you been searching for antigravity – we'll be leaving the floor believe in the team – we're here to even the score alla y'all – know you wanna take it higher fighters and survivors, come on and raise your lighters keep the flame alive still keeping the flame – been deep in the pain this scene is insane but I ain't leaving my lane dreaming of change – change dreams to tactics reactivate the bass – mix dynamics pyrotechnics fly in the twilight sky spread wings tonight, then I glide right by on a Southern zephyr – contents under pressure it's now or never for the come together the past's done – time's running fast, son treat any chance that I get like it's my last one don't take it for granted – can't fake it or plan it adapt, react, and enact the jam, goddammit that's how I live it – give it back – invigorate something for the haters to love – lovers to levitate what you've been missing – listen up and listen in the zone track – got your back through thick and thin alla y'all – know you wanna take it higher fighters and survivors, come on and raise your lighters keep the flame alive

Recalibrate calling on the follow-through – wishing all of you to persevere in this endless year we're all crawling through where's the center here? Find the ground again pad and pen in hand – blend the inner sound again play the song – the days are long keep my eyes open for something to hang a phrase upon none can undo the truth of what we've come through keep it spoken – smoking – keep the chain unbroken bring it back to the path – claps and high hats kicks locked with the bass in the pocket, like that my constellations are inlays on fretboards slice mic cords with red swords – get set so inroads to insight – twilight – begin night fingertips on the faders – get the mix right twist typekits like burners in wildstyle yearn for freeflight – the place to be is Now recalibrate rise above the hate Verse by CM all across the vast land to the southland again the shore sands, oceans – open floorplans in my dreams expand – dance in new spaces my stance on bass is: hand the blues praises explore and grow and change – my flow is strange but yo, this time is so insane – people so in pain – so to say make it plain, and I really try while i'm peering through these prisms with a healing eye still I like to wile the time, styling rhymes dialed in – tuned with the wild designs bloomed in the starscape – the new moon, the art of high stakes and heartbreak – the too soon heartbeats and bass – still in motion interwoven with the kicks – mixing up a potion closing time approaching – another night coming down flying out on the other side of town recalibrate rise above the hate

Bring the Fight Back here's what the blend is: unfolding, endless choose between money and time what you spend is: an investment what the return is: what you keeping when you leaving what you learn is: adapt to shifting scenes in a dreamstate hungry ghosts among us try to clean plates can't get satisfaction – acting out bit off more than they could chew – backing out can't unring the bell, though – hell no consumer debt – what's left? to sell soul a mall is a hellhole – I keep a wide berth turn my focus back within, inside earth keep it rooted to the core – transmuted hatred into love – plans executed comprehend that – keep the blends phat everything you send out gets sent back bring the life back bring the light back and bring the motherfucking fight back fight back navigate rhyme passages – decipher messages assessing damages and blessings is part and parcel of day-to-day practices press play – the way we make magic is mix expeditions – fader pushing – knob twisting drum tuning – flows hitting – close listening taking it on a line-by-line basis and if it ain't making it, i'm recalibrating it everything's proceeding apace fit the kicks in the mix so they sit with the bass time is short but i'm patient – tuned in I keep my goals in focus – zoomed in groove ride – precise as a diamond stylus high fidelity – ride a vibe in silence be the stillness – I keep it serene one step ahead on a balancing beam bring the life back bring the light back and bring the motherfucking fight back fight back it ain't about what you think – it's hooking up the links kid – get this heat to relinquish the tracks for the abstract vernacular looting that wax like a sampler scavenger time traveler rocking in the call box surreality like Dali to your wall clocks sparks fly from the PA – ease in on the freeway weaving with the latitude and leeway lateral flex beats a flat affect spoiler alert – check what happens next battle over – reenacted for posterity play a sucker emcee, mumble incoherently you won't get near to me – you'll be held at bay and when I grab the 58 there'll be hell to pay like Bill and Jimmy burning up paper cash while I'm killing Confederate traitor trash

Light 'Em Up as the tone plays, I roll phrase through the smoke haze new flows only – no shows on replays don't be caught dozing – no closing time so enthralled – y'all like, keep it open all night grime and grit EQ'd in the mix basis same timeslot and station – you know the place is I Like It Like That – down with the basement tech set up the speaker stack so the bass can wreck clean pristine with the subs on the sine wave dirty with the mids, kid – that's how mine plays roll it off the top like analog 4-track when you ping-pong to make way for more tracks arm with the red lights – caught in the headlights putting in work on the mic – make sure it's said right prismatic facets in liquid projections digital video – Milkdrop selections mental image collage – that's what the vibe is that's proper rawness to honor your fucking highness it's the next scene – best keep your lens clean in the blendstream – light 'em up – defend dreams light 'em up Verses by Seed Verb & Sloe-T

On the Run sun dives – on the run – drive to twilight see the way through day to day you keep the faith and display truth on the box, this is it – medicinals in the mix with the hats, snares and kicks beware of this – treat it with respect due all of that – true, this reflects you one way or another way – another day listen to the inner, not what some others say they don't know about half of what they flow about you got your own task at hand to go about rhyme design for a lifetime – a lifeline a point of light in the sky at nighttime close to where the fury lays in wait use caution but I can't say I play it safe producer of the Fantom Movers – plan and doers eye to eye – try to understand the bluest sail on past – trains keep rolling through the veil draws back and i'm strolling through sun dives – on the run – drive to twilight see the way through day to day you keep the faith and display truth Verse by Donnie Ozone it's the breakout point – change direction with a guitar at the crossroads intersection days out from base camp with the amp out it's your choice: kick up sparks or stamp out I strive to feed the fire – we leave tomorrow today is the day though – so to assuage the sorrow stay energized cause setbacks can happen defness in practice – mixtapes a map and moving forward though you sometimes stumble it's its own reward: the course – stay humble schools and universities: the universe is these that's why the beat'll be refined to a high degree that's why I don't need all of y'all trying me fighting me when I just describe the irony the mercenary's art is cold – it's hard to know how to walk into the dark with a heart of gold...

Come Back Strong pass it by word and by hand unburden your heart with your art and you start to innerstand hit the reset and come back strong thought to take to track to mix to song one eye on the screen, one eye on the dream gain steam – the strain – orchestrate the theme elucidate the pain illuminate the path for the next cats ruminate on the facts next up, a serial saga with a bad script rhythms and ragas are mad swift put your work in so it ain't too fast to follow whose past is perfect? Tune back tomorrow for the next episode as the world burns in the whirlwind – turntables in a tailspin cold as a hailstorm, but the cuts precise when the time is right – got it once or twice no faking – you know when to make a move when the walls are weak and the nighttime is breaking through put your fist where it sits in the mix if you'se a viper you'll wanna listen to this pass it by word and by hand unburden your heart with your art and you start to innerstand hit the reset and come back strong thought to take to track to mix to song Verse by C-Doc we hold on to some things, let go of others oscillate between Winters and Summers season cycles – ride high with the beat disciples keep the firelight – release the trifles the stylus finds the center through a spiral of sound and at the end we lift it up and then we flip it around begin again – know what I'm getting at? working on a dream instead of that just setting back in the time for growing I'm going full force until the night into day has run its full course and then again – dial it up, consistent style is what? position of rhythms a dozen semitones applied upon a grid of time unique arrays emanating from this lid of mine it may take longer than you thought but look how much stronger you got the longer you fought pass it by word and by hand unburden your heart with your art and you start to innerstand hit the reset and come back strong thought to take to track to mix to song

Trust Your Soul night's beginning – with any luck the wait is ending design the blends and keep these fucking plates spinning as the world turns – day to night and back I see the color burn – more fly than white and black pulling late nights – get the dub plates right going viral – make a spiral from a straight line through a Moebius strip on a melodious tip build up a sample collage with the copious clips and the granular synth – if you can handle this it's bad, bold, raw sound unfolding in this like Coxsone Dodd, a sound seeker international mix up in the loudspeaker another heater gonna redline the voltmeter funkify your life and catch the gold fever so my teacher is the sonics and the style itself top shelf – keep it dialed to the highest wealth day steps aside to night's rise we dance in praise of dusk – it stays with us raise your eyes to twilight skies adjust and trust the flow trust your soul sampled tones evoke the smoke poems and the Zone's adrift with the clones in the seasonal shift twilight backdrop mixed with streetlamps beats on repeat on the box keeping me amped signed sealed and stamped for delivery traditions of musicians and gifts that still live in me rearranged like collage in composition intentional designstyle blends with intuition each line is a choice – align with the noise fly skylines of rhyme – come into summertime inner states reset – depressurize arise to the heights your mind's eye specifies I steal time to make this flow for real act like an average joe – y'all don't know the deal that's 'cause the soul... it's to be protected if you didn't know before you best respect it day steps aside to night's rise we dance in praise of dusk – it stays with us raise your eyes to twilight skies adjust and trust the flow trust your soul I got that style and feel of a driving wheel striving on – you know the Time's for real so you can look up how to cook up in a recipe book what I made when I played but it's necessity – look I got the essence of the resonance – consider this that if you lose the roots of blues, it's hit or miss that's what the South is about when we talk musically I keep it moving in me because it grew like a tree see how it branch out to expand sound move with the band now – outstanding, hands down I gotta lock it in the pocket with the bass and the kick like George Porter Jr. you know the phrasing is sick and when the silence means as much as a note does gotta improvise – you can't play it by rote, cuz stay dedicated to this mic that I'm holding 'cause every day I see this light that's unfolding day steps aside to night's rise we dance in praise of dusk – it stays with us raise your eyes to twilight skies adjust and trust the flow trust your soul
